If Christian value voters and conservatives turn out in droves, Palin-McCain wins

..and I haven't seen this demographic this motivated since 1980...

How in Hades do they allocate the undicideds like that? That’s just crazy.

Let me say again, and even this poll proves it:

MCCAIN WILL WIN MORE DEM VOTE THAN OBAMA WINS REPUBLICAN VOTES.

All the rest is based on IBD "giving" the undecideds to the Messiah. We'll see. I don't believe it for a minute.

Good morning. So it has come to this. The MSM has managed to portray Obama as a centrist agent of change. The RNC and milquetoast McCain campaign have walked on eggshells not to offend the marxist quisling and his anti-American followers.

If McCain pull this out, it will be for 2 factors: The NRA and Palin.

The 4.2% represents “other” not undecided.

Ouch. Thanks for the correction. I'll have the moderator correct the title.

Fear is a great motivator, and this idiot strikes fear in the hearts of our base that far exceeds that of Slick, ALgore, or Lurch.

Hmmm.
Maybe this is God’s way of telling us we haven’t been doing our jobs of ministering to our fellow man and getting them to church.

I’m a Christian, but even I haven’t been attending church regularly for quite a while. Guess I will start going again and enjoy it while I can before Obama makes Islam the national religion.

AS RUSH LIMBAUGH SAID YESTERDAY...'IGNORE THE POLLS...GO AND VOTE!'

All these alphabet organization are in some kind of frenzy right now...they have to be 'viable' in future elections. Just the word of the wiseman, and ignore.

As I’ve been saying, we will need some kind of a mass movement to oppose the policies of the Democrats and the Obama Administration. Something much larger than just the conservative blogs.

Just go vote

Ignore the polls

Remember, regardless of who is POTUS they may lead the country, but God is in control. Obama may say he has the “righteous wind”, but God is in our side.

Vote. In 24 hours we’ll all see the results. I have a gut feeling that McCain/Palin will pull it out.

PAY NO ATTENTION to THE POLLLSTERS OR ELECTORAL MAPS

They are WRONG, not only has bias been shown for Obama but the pollsters are not set-up to deal with people voting early in up to 30 states!
